[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 1802738, member: 93179"] How I agree! As a long time chrionic migraine sufferer with a number of food triggers I pretty soon learned in a very agonizing way that I should avoid eating those particular foods. This "aversion therapy" has stood me in good stead since I've been diagnosed as T2 and has made eating low carbs a complete no brainer even if I won't get the same immediate and painful feedback from eating too many carbs... Well we [B]always[/B] knew this before some yolkers in recent years declared otherwise, eggxactly the same as has been done with fats... :banghead::banghead: But we [B]did[/B] know about and use it well over a century ago, a ketogenic diet was tried on diabetics by Rollo in the 1790s, Banting used a low carb diet for weight loss in the 19th century, and it was used for T1 diabetics pre insulin, and as further "proof" there's a copy of a low carb cookery book from the early 1900s available on the web. So why all this has been completely ignored has always been beyong my comprehension! Robbity PS And to cap it all, [B]I'm[/B] shouting myself into a real diabetic tantrum - not at the TV but at the blasted BBC website - I missed the program for reasons I'll not go into here for fear of further ranting - and iPlayer is playing silly b*****s (self censored) with me and refusing work...:mad: [/QUOTE]
